WHY WE CHOSE THIS REGIMEN FOR YOU:

Your skin is Sensitive, Dry, Acne-Prone, with evidence of Hyperpigmentation and no signs of Rhytides, also known as aging lines. Sensitive skin can be prone to itching and irritation when using cosmetics and skincare. Dry skin has many causes including improper hydration, exposure to the elements, poor exfoliation, side effects of medications, imbalanced diet, and genetic predisposition. Having dry skin also means your skin scatters light, leading to a dull and rough appearance and tends to become more easily irritated and red. The right combination of natural plant oils can be used to create a highly effective moisturizer with restorative properties for your dry skin.

When choosing products for Acne-Prone skin, it is essential that they maximize protective and anti-aging benefits, while avoiding the formation of acne. While there are anti-aging ingredients that may trigger acne, others will prevent and treat acne while exerting rejuvenating effects.

There is evidence of Hyperpigmentation, a condition that reveals itself in the form of diffuse patches of darker skin, or smaller brown spots that can result from cumulative sun and environmental exposure. Sometimes this dark discoloration can also occur from acne that leaves brown spots after resolving. The most important topical product to use to prevent discoloration is a high quality broad spectrum sunscreen. Equally important is adding skin brightening and lightening creams that contains several ingredients combating pigment including Vitamin C, B3, and UVA ursi, a botanical compound found to block excessive melanin production.

PROTECTING YOUR SKIN:

You have no signs of Rhytides, but unfortunately, they are inevitable over time. Aging lines are due to several factors, including repeated facial muscle contraction over time, cumulative sun and environmental exposure, free radical damage, and genetic factors. The good news is that you can help delay their formation with topical and protective ingredients including broad spectrum sunscreen, vitamin C, Vitamin E, and retinol. These compounds protect your skin from environmental damage and are free radical scavengers that can prevent and even reverse the signs of aging. They have even been shown to improve the appearance of aging lines in clinical studies.
